I've been getting good results from OpenCode. Has anyone been able to get it to work with local models though? It doesn't seem to want to play nice with Ollama.

I have an open code server running as a service on a linux desktop with the port opened up so I can use the web UI from my windows laptop. The same linux desktop is running Ollama and I'm currently using qwen3.6:35b with it.

The setup was mostly for the learning experience and I haven't done any serious work with it, but it's been great for writing bash scripts.

I used OpenCode to help me install ollama, Qwen local LLM, and connect OpenCode to it.

The computer is very slow (old Dell Optiplex running Mint Debian Linux), but it worked! So cool to turn off the network, and still be able to chit-chat with Qwen model ("Tell me a joke about...").

    cool, I'll have to mess around with it some more. I don't expect to be able to do any real work with my 16GB MacBook Pro, but eventually, I would like an all local setup.
